You remember the cartoon G.I.Joe, A Real American Hero, don’t you?
Every episode followed a simple plot: The G.I. Joes, were supposed to be *the* elite squad of of the American military, with powers that were practically magic by normal standards. The “Joes” were tasked with guarding a top secret technology that would help the world unless, by some outside chance, it was taken by the evil organization Cobra, which could instantly turn it into a Weapon of Mass Destruction. Before you could say “commercial break,” Cobra had nabbed the technology and the Joes were desperately fighting to get it back. The best they could do every episode was to destroy the technology to prevent Cobra from using it.
